Steve's response:
A MEARS auction states; "There are no supporting factory records to document exact use of this brand by major league players, but we do know that PTC did supply bats to the professional leagues. Other examples of PTC bats have entered the market, with examples of Frank Chance, additional Napoleon Lajoie, and minor league players. During the September 30th, 2010 MEARS Auction, a 1905-16 era Curly Blount stamped bat was offered with identical Indian with headdress center brand. Additionally, his name, "JENNINGS" is stamped into the knob." http://sports.mearsonlineauctions.co...-lot78550.aspx I'm not sure if that's what I used for reference. I don't recall. I might have read an article written by Dave Bushing. Either way it is a professional bat (Jennings on the knob) but without strong provenance or factory records it cannot be attributed to Hughie Jennings. Here is an auction for a 1900-12 Willie Keeler Pontiac Turning Company Professional Model Bat.> https://goldinauctions.com/1900_12_W...-LOT36465.aspx I just now referenced it to see if MEARS added any information on Pontiac Professional model bats and I noticed that they are using my website as reference in their letters of evaluation. LOL .... If you like send me some nice pictures and I'll add it to the website for reference. -Steven KeyManCollectibles.com is now on Facebook! Come by, 'Like' this page and become a Fan.
